The Dunrobin Detachment was a military-operated radio communications receiver station linked by land line to CFS Carp located on the corner of Dunrobin Road and Vance's Side Road NW of Dunrobin, Ontario. A second antenna receiver site was located further West near Almonte, Ontario; the Almonte Detachment. The detachment was unmanned and the location primarily used as a remote antenna farm. After the end of the Cold war, CFS Carp was decommissioned and the antenna site was no longer needed.
